...and then I seduced Agent Mulder!

What turned it into a lengthy and fascinating time sink for me is that I've never watched, for instance, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, or Highlander: The Series (or any of the Highlander movies apart from the first, actually, since There Can Be Only One,) or the various Star Trek spinoffs after the one with the bald guy as captain, so every time I encountered an unfamiliar character or series, I turned to that handy black hole on the internet: Wikipedia.

And it is flat amazing the time and effort fans of these various shows have put into their respective chunks of Wikipedia. There is probably a larger and more detailed web of articles on the TeeWee series Highlander than there is on the actual Scottish Highlands. It is just unreal. Literally.

They've since cleaned up the article, but you can find it if you look way back in the archives from 2008.

In the Wikipedia article for "White & Nerdy", by "Weird Al" Yankovic, there's a 2 second scene where Al sings "...X-men comics, you know I collect them..." while holding up a handful of comics. In the W'pedia article, of course, they go into exact detail over which exact issues are held in what exact order in each hand.

(Then they explain that it's not actually possible to edit Wikipedia to say "you suck" in that large of a font...)
